The new decade is basically here and Alexis Ren is the dynamic star to know. Social media may have been how she got her big break in modeling, but since then, she's worked hard to make the most out of her career. She launched her own activewear line Ren Active and even competed on Dancing With the Stars alongside professional dancer Alan Bersten.
In 2019, Ren continued her streak in front of the camera by collaborating on music videos with Ed Sheeran and Kygo. With another roaring 20's on the horizon, fans can expect the 23-year-old to embark on more on-screen adventures. "I'm changing my career so drastically," she told Forbes earlier this year at the Revolve Awards. "It's been really amazing. I'm going into acting, which is going to be so fun and I'm excited for that transition."
The model and entrepreneur turned actress also explained that she's open to all opportunities that come her way. "My goal is to find more creative outlets for my art, whether that be acting, music or poetry." At the same time, she wants to focus on making a difference in the environment and coming up with innovative ways to make the world more sustainable. "I'm really invested in environmental work," she said. "Even though it's absolutely beautiful to work on your own accomplishments, none of it is going to matter if we don't protect the Earth. That's one of my priorities now because I want the younger kids of our generation to have a bright future."
Her ambition and confidence is unlike any other, but Ren mentioned that she couldn't have gotten to where she is today without her strong support system. This includes her family, friends and of course, boyfriend Noah Centineo. The duo made their red carpet debut in October for the UNNICEF Masquerade Ball. "When I doubt myself, having them to look towards is everything to me," Ren shared of her loved ones.
She added that her To All the Boys I've Loved Before love interest constantly keeps her going. "He inspires me in every single way, he's all of the above," Ren described of Centineo. "I've really grown so much as a human being in our relationship. He challenges me mentally, emotionally, in the work that I do and with my mental health. He's so evolved as a human being, so it's really amazing and makes me understand what a healthy relationship can look like. It's really beautiful."
